Rating: 5.0


Swap Quatrain is an invented stanzaic form that repeats L1 in inverted syntax as a refrain
in L4 of the same stanza. Created by Lorraine M Kanter. The elements of the Swap Quatrain are:

stanzaic, written in any number of quatrains.
metered at the discretion of the poet. However the lines must be long enough to create 2 hemistiches
written with 2 phrases of L1 of each stanza inverted and repeated as L4 in a refrain.
rhymed aabb ccdd

"Freedom wanted"..At last! a title found..! !
Words fill lines matching the title so sound
Not too fast but thoughtful in time needed
At last! a title found.."Freedom wanted"

Something great written.A must-read content
Great Mahatma Gandhiji whose intent
To get freedom, its history written
A must-read content.Something great written
